You say that but I highly doubt you're going to completely stop reading new things at all. People probably said similar things when other inventions were made but humans adapt, the hedonic treadmill is real.
I don't think it's so easy to find a group of good writers (let alone convincing them to let me join!)
But, yes, that would be an option. Honestly, though, if this sort of future actually comes to pass, I think I'll have much larger problems to find ways to handle first.

At which point, I'll probably stop reading new things and my favorite authors will be historical ones.

Why not join a group of like minded people and read each other's stories? No need to just give up and fold like that.
